Agricultural harvesting machine movable into two positions

An agricultural machine for harvesting crop, which is pulled by a tractor in a direction of advance and projects laterally beyond said tractor during work, said machine comprising:

• a frame provided with tongue means for hitching said machine to said tractor, said tongue means being pivotally mounted on the frame;
• ground engaging wheels on which said frame is mounted for carrying said machine;
• arms on which said wheels are mounted, said arms having pivots carrying said wheels and which are pivoted to substantially vertical pins;
• cutting means, and conditioning and throwing means, mounted on said frame;
• adjustable deflector means disposed at a rear side of said frame;
• and
• transposition means, for positively moving said machine from a first work position in which the cutting means and the conditioning and throwing means are disposed substantially perpendicular to the direction of advance to a second work position in which the cutting means and the conditioning and throwing means form a first acute angle with a straight line perpendicular to the direction of advance and second acute angles with the axes of said ground engaging wheels, the second angles having substantially the same value as the first angle;
• wherein said transposition means comprises:
• a first hydraulic cylinder means disposed between said frame and said tongue means and a pair of second hydraulic cylinder means, each of said second hydraulic cylinder means being disposed between said frame and one of said wheels;
• an adjusting cylinder means disposed between said frame and said deflector means;
• and
• means for causing said transposition means to act simultaneously.
